Arcade & Desolate: hectic & suspenseful

Roguelite cult hit Unexplored receives two new game
modes

AMSTERDAM •Unexplored, the roguelite action rpg known for its unique dungeon
generation, added two new game modes. Two exact opposites, to be
precise. The Arcade Mode pits players against a ridiculous amount
of enemies, whereas the Desolate Mode removes most
combat.

The latter offers an experience where you really have to
consider every encounter: do I attack or sneak past the creatures?
Desolate mode is tense and suspenseful, Arcade mode is a hectic,
kill-or-be-killed experience.

DLC: Mithril Run & Ripley Run

Beside the new play modes, Unexplored previously launched two
DLCs which overhaul the gameplay in different ways: the
fantasy-themed Mithril Run and the alien-themed Ripley Run. A third
DLC will launch soon.

On Sale

Unexplored is currently on sale on Steam, offering a 20%
discount and all DLC for free at 7.99 dollar or equivalent.

The game launched recently to great critical response and
currently has a 95% positive review score on Steam. The developers
keep updating the game with new features and content. Since the
launch, Unexplored received as much as 15 major content
updates.

Three pieces of DLC are available for free with the game: the
Original Soundtrack (composed by Matthijs Dierckx of TwoComposers),
the fantasy themed Mithril Run, and finally the alien themed
Ripley Run.

Introducing "Cyclic Dungeon Generation"

The launch of
Unexplored also marked the
first official release of a game using Cyclic Dungeon Generation,
the new way of creating -less- random levels and emergent
gameplay.

content generation, emergent gameplay and the highly acclaimed math
game, Sumico (rated 9/10 by Nintendo Life).
